\section{So, when did you first learn about and start using LaTeX?}
I started using it my junior year of college, in 2009. So I’ve been a LaTeX user for a good five years.
Basically my advisor came to me and he said: “Look, you’ve got to learn this. If you’re serious about a career as a mathematician,” - which at the time I was - “there’s just no two ways about it. You have to learn LaTeX. It’s the tool a lot of mathematicians and scientists use to publish their papers.”
My first encounter with programming was Java. It was part of our curriculum for our math degree, so programming was not new to me at the time. So when I learned about LaTeX and started using it and saw what it could do, I was really excited.\\
